Turbo upgrade question

vegasspeed · 03-15-2009, 03:13 PM

Who are the other companies out there besides ASR that have some turbo impeller swaps or full turbo swaps? I know there was another one that did the impeller swap. Help me out here guys. I couldn't get thru the search to find the link.

GT PRO...

Not worth the $2400, your probably better off just swapping the entire turbo

wow - $2400 for an impeller change & take the risk on balancing it & all other required mods? If you have that money trade the car in and get an M3..

If you know the spec on the turbo I'm sure you can source different compressor wheels and/or hot side turbines from eBay or the like for a lot less than $2.4k.

Add to that a couple of rebuild kits and you're probably into it for $1k.
